Attorneys' Fees - Contingent Fees

Students have a little knowledge about contingent fees from TV lawyer ads, but don't really know how they work or how they contribute to maintain access to legal services. There are many videos from lawyers trying to describe contingent fees as part of an advertisement for services. The video supplied below describes the fee arrangement and its benefits without the sales pitch. The second video below is produced by The Georgia Civil Justice Foundation.
